Clean but high traffic
Breakfast was hit or miss. We brought our own because we never knew how long it would be out. Not a big deal. The room was clean and comfortable. Even though it is by the airport, I never once heard a plane. The pedestrian traffic was high with little kids (very polite) in the parking lot. Lots of noise in the lobby from like 9pm to midnight and the halls always smelled like food. Overall it was a good stay for the time we were there.

Slipping??
Have stayed here several times, but things have slipped last two stays. This last stay I had a room that had been smoked in by prior guests. There was a strong cigar/cigarette smell in the room. Hopefully thingss will get back on track.

I do not recommend
To many weird people walking around. Kids running around the property barefoot. No room service at all and I was there for 3 days. People smoking meth and weed right in front of the cameras. Also the pool was dirty and not working and breakfast was taken by the same family every day no matter how early you get there. They take plates of food to their room. Overall it was a horrible experience for a short getaway.

Terrible
The bed sheets were nasty, the floors made your feet black, there was mold in the bathroom, there were no towels, no soap, the door wouldn’t even lock for extra comfort. You couldn’t even get comfortable in bed because you felt gross
